Taking a look inside the homes of creative people inspires me. Their homes provide not only a glimpse into their lives but also into their creative process - a quickly drawn sketch, a few photographs torn from magazines and fixed to the wall, leftover paint, a jar of pencils - I love all of these details.
My partner recently gave me the book Creative Space: Urban homes of artists and innovators as a gift. It features the apartments and homes of designers, stylists, artists, innovators to name a few and most of the interiors have a pop culture vibe to them. It has become one of my favourite reads.
The featured homes are filled with vintage furniture and finds, collectables, artwork resting against walls, window sills and above bookcases and piles of books in various corners. All of the spaces are very much lived in by the owners. These are just some of my favourite pages from the book.
If you have a creative space you would like to share on ish and chi, please contact me. I would love to hear from you.
